Chapter 67: The "crime" of Lin Manman and the other two



Lin Manman and Lin Shangjing were discussing what to bring to Lin Yintian tomorrow. Liu Baozhu was not idle either. She worked late into the night, writing down the "crimes" of Lin Manman and the other two!

It was true. She became more and more excited the more she talked, and wrote a total of 5 pages. If the other educated youth had not thought she was wasting lamp oil and blew out the lamp, she might have written a few more pages.

Liu Baozhu took the letter and thought proudly: Lin Manman, now let me see what you can use to be arrogant. Since I can't represent you and get your family's love and support, then just destroy it, no one will have an easy life!

The next morning, Liu Baozhu walked to the commune in the wind and snow, put the letter in the commune mailbox, and then returned to wait for Lin Manman to be arrested!

After waiting for a week, Lin Manman received 2 letters, but there was still no letter from Liu Baozhu!

Liu Baozhu was a little anxious. Why was there no response? Wasn’t what she wrote clear enough?

In other words, the commune is protecting Lin Manman for Lin Guoping's sake?

What should I do? Should I just let Lin Manman go?

How could Liu Baozhu be willing to accept this? She decided to write another letter and this time put it directly into a mailbox in the county. She just didn't believe that no one would deal with Lin Manman like this!

…………

While Liu Baozhu was thinking about how to deal with Lin Manman, Lin Manman and the other two were waiting for the kang in their new home to dry so that they could move in!

Among them, the one who was most impatient was not Lin Manman, but Lin Shouwang.

The reason is simple. This week, Lin Manman and Lin Shangjing have visited Lin Yintian several times.

However, although some of the scabs on Lin Shouwang's legs had fallen off, he still walked very slowly. If he went out to see Lin Yintian now, he would be too big a conspicuous person. There was no other way, Lin Shouwang could only worry at the captain's house!

In addition to going to work these days, Lin Manman went with Lin Shangjing to deliver things to Lin Yintian.

Together with Aunt Wang and Grandma Bai, I made warm clothes for Lin Shangjing, Lin Shouwang and Lin Yintian!

Of course, Lin Shangjing and Lin Shouwang’s were made by Aunt Wang and Grandma Bai, while Lin Yintian’s was made by Lin Manman himself!

In order to make Lin Yintian's cotton-padded jacket inconspicuous, Lin Manman had already asked Lin Yintian for his thin jacket that he wore in spring and autumn, and prepared to make the cotton-padded jacket, with his previous jacket as the outermost layer.

In addition to making cotton-padded clothes, I also made bedding for three people!

Of course, she made bedding for Lin Yintian on the pretext that she was preparing it for Lin Guoping!

After finishing these things, Lin Manman only had about 40 kilograms of cotton left!

The cotton is consumed too quickly. Even including the cotton coupons issued before, there is only 46 kilograms!

This amount of cotton may sound like a lot, but don’t forget that their grandfathers have to use cotton to make cotton jackets and trousers every year!

Four people would need at least 15-16 kilograms a year. If we use these 46 kilograms frugally, they would be gone in just three years!

This won’t do. The plan of growing cotton in space must be put on the agenda.

After burning the kang for seven days, the kangs in the four rooms were finally dry!

After they finished, Lin Manman and the other two wanted to move in right away, but Aunt Wang said that they had to choose a good day to move, and the calendar showed that the next day would be a good day!

Lin Manman thought, these three days won’t make a difference, so let’s pray for a good start.

Besides, at least two tables must be prepared in the greenhouse. Not to mention others, Uncle Zhang and his family who helped build the house, Uncle Zhuzi and his family who helped as a carpenter, Grandma Bai who helped with making cotton-padded clothes and beddings, and the team leader's family who have always taken good care of her and helped her a lot, all of them must be invited!

When inviting guests to dinner, you always have to prepare two good dishes. It just happened that it snowed a few days ago, and Lin Manman was thinking of having a meal of goose stewed in an iron pot!

But there was only a goose laying eggs in the space, and Lin Manman was reluctant to kill it, so she had to go out and buy one!

A big goose, add some side dishes, fried peanuts, fried potato slices with bacon, and mixed with dried shrimps and cabbage hearts, and that's about it!

It’s not that Lin Manman couldn’t prepare better dishes, but that would be too conspicuous, so she prepared the dishes based on the ones that the captain’s family always served at dinner parties!

The last time the cows and sheep came back, Aunt Wang just killed a chicken, fried a few eggs, fried some peanuts, and mixed some cabbage!

There were too many people, and the eggs in her space were always eaten as soon as they were laid, so she didn't save any at all. Besides, with so many people, she would have to fry more than ten eggs, and Lin Manman couldn't bear to do that!

There happened to be another piece of bacon left from Liu's house, and it would be perfect to use it to stew potatoes!

There is no need to go out and buy big geese. There are several families in the Minjin Production Team who raise geese. However, they raise only a few. Every family raises one or two. They guard the house in the summer and are slaughtered for meat in the winter!

Lin Manman still has a lot of tickets of various kinds, and he can always exchange them for Big Goose tickets in the team!

Lin Manman, with the ticket in his pocket, went to find Aunt Wang to ask who was willing to sell a goose!

When Lin Manman mentioned that she wanted to buy a goose, Aunt Wang thought for a moment and said:

"If you want to know who in the team raises geese best, it's your Aunt Wang Er and Aunt Wang San!"

"This year, your Second Aunt Wang hatched a lot of goslings. We gave four to your Third Aunt Wang, so there are still five left!"

"In the summer, they were afraid that someone would come to check on them, so they stewed the half-grown fish twice at your Aunt Wang's house. I guess they'll only keep one in the winter, and the rest can't be kept!"

"One of your Aunt Wang's children died, so there are three left. They will definitely be sold, but I don't know whether to sell one or two!"

"If you want to buy it, I'll take you to ask their two families!"

When Lin Manman heard this, she thought that this meant 3-4 big geese. That was great. She would go buy one with Aunt Wang today, and then she would go buy the rest by herself later!

Lin Manman followed Aunt Wang to Aunt Wang's house first, and Aunt Wang told her Lin Manman's intention.
